Stussy Deluxe x Al Fingers x Greensleeves – Eek-A-Mouse

Legendary US streetwear brand Stussy teamed up with Al Fingers and Greensleeves not only to compile a book with the first 100 covers of the label but to release a collection of tees. It is quite hard to pick a favourite as all of them feature nice Greensleeves cover artworks – but we especially dig the Eek-A-Mouse and the black logo shirt.
